Martial: I Started The Technological Revolution In Ancient Times

C35 Home Return after a Hundred Battles



C35 Home Return after a Hundred Battles

Xiao Yun's first stop was the Leng family.    

    

Although Old Master Leng didn't attend the court, he didn't have the time to speak up for him.    

    

However, he had to keep his promise.    

    

On the way to the Leng family, there was a narrow road where two carriages met. There was no way to pass through. Only one side could make way and exit from the inside.    

    

Xiao Yun saw it from afar. He stopped there to watch the show.    

    

Anyone who could ride a carriage in the capital was either rich or noble.    

    

This path could lead to the back door of a few big families, but... After all, it was the back door. Even family members could go through the front door.    

    

Unless it was an immoral person or someone with a bad reputation, that person would drive a horse carriage to the back door.    

    

Now that the two horse carriages were together, it was definitely an interesting scene.    

    

In Xiao Yun's opinion, they would definitely not give in to each other, and perhaps they would start a fight at that time.    

    

This was a very interesting thing.    

    

It was rare for Xiao Yun to be in the mood to watch the show.    

    

But fate did not make sense.    

    

The two groups of people actually did not fight.    

    

Although one group of people was clearly extremely angry, there was also a servant who stood there and was about to curse.    

    

However, the other party only tolerated it, and a young maid was even more polite, compensating, apologizing, and that kind of pure smiling face was extremely lethal, making the other party feel embarrassed even if they wanted to get angry.    

    

In the end, it was the young maid and the others who made way for them. They waited for the other party to pass before slowly moving forward.    

    

This scene made Xiao Yun a little surprised.    

    

However, although he was surprised, he was a little depressed that he didn't see the lively scene.    

    

Just as he was about to turn around and leave and forget about what happened here, the moment he turned his head, he saw the pure face of the young maid and his expression instantly turned gloomy!    

    

At that moment...    

    

It was as if a myriad of flowers bloomed and turned into iron and blood on the battlefield!    

    

That was killing intent? !    

    

One! A young lady with the aura of a veteran of a hundred battles!    

    

Xiao Yun often saw that kind of gaze.    

    

It was like a country that had been embroiled in war for thirteen years, with millions of soldiers. There were only three to two thousand soldiers left, returning with a miserable victory. In the face of the cheers from the streets and alleys, they silently walked in the middle of the road, turning a blind eye to everything around them.    

    

In their empty and lifeless eyes, there was an inexplicable light, a black light that plunged the entire world into a sea of blood...    

    

Once upon a time, Xiao Yun had the same look in his eyes.    

    

It took him ten years to hide the look in his eyes and return it to a calm and peaceful state.    

    

He immediately stopped.    

    

He narrowed his eyes and continued to observe the carriage.    

    

Now that he took a closer look, it wasn't just the little maid.    

    

There was also the driver of the horse. His clothes were slightly deformed from his shoulders. Occasionally, when he waved the horsewhip, his wrist would slightly swing upwards. It was a very subtle movement, but it was a subconscious movement of drawing a knife.    

    

Even the two horses!    

    

If one looked closely, one would be able to see that they had scars on their bodies. There were arrow wounds, long and curved knife wounds, narrow on both sides and wide in the middle, and extremely straight. Those were wounds that had been stabbed by a spear!    

    

These were horses that had come down from the battlefield.    

    

During the entire process just now, no matter whether it was blocked, retreated, or advanced, the two horses did not change at all.    

    

Usually, horses would walk back and forth at that time. On one hand, they adjusted their position, and on the other hand, they were nervous proof.    

    

Actually, there was another very important detail, and it was also the reason why Xiao Yun stopped to be lively.    

    

These two horses... did not wear blindfolds!    

    

The horse's eyesight was very strange.    

    

The horse's courage was usually very small.    

    

Although their eyes were very big, they were actually evidence of their "big eyes" being dull. In their eyes, humans were very, very big, even bigger than themselves.    

    

Thus, if the horses on the streets saw pedestrians that were many times bigger than themselves, they would easily be frightened and go crazy.    

    

Therefore, most horse carriages needed to wear eyepatches on the eyes of the horses to block their vision.    

    

There was only one type of horse that did not need to wear eyepatches when walking in a busy city. It would remain calm when there were any accidents. There were only orders and nothing else.    

    

That was a warhorse!    

    

A hundred was naturally false. It was a bit exaggerated.    

    

The first horse on the battlefield needed to cover its eyes, leaving only a small hole, so that it could only see in front of it, so that it could accurately follow the rider's instructions.    

    

The second time, it would be much stronger.    

    

Only when the horse entered the battlefield seven or eight times and did not die could the eyepatch be removed. On one hand, it could allow the rider to command it, and on the other hand, it could allow the horse to freely perform.    

    

Sometimes, this would be able to save the lives of the cavalry!    

    

Warhorses... were good stuff!    

    

Xiao Yun narrowed his eyes and directly walked towards the carriage.    

    

Shangguan Qing'er did not understand and hurriedly followed behind. She even asked, "Young Master Yun, aren't we going to the Leng family?"    

    

"Wait a moment, there's no hurry."    

    

"Why wait a moment? You want to chase that carriage?"    

    

Shangguan Qing'er was stunned for a moment, then pouted and said, "Look at that little maid and the style of the carriage. It should be a woman's carriage. Young Master Yun, don't tell me you want to see what that lady looks like?"    

    

Xiao Yun turned his head and blinked his eyes. Then he could not hold back his laughter and said, "How old are you? Why are you pouting like a little girl? You are tall and big. Don't pretend to be cute. You are also not afraid that others will see you as a joke."    

    

Shangguan Qing'er was so angry that she almost fainted.    

    

Being choked on two vital points by a sentence, she could not take it anymore. She could only follow behind him feeling wronged. She cursed in her heart many times.    

    

Xiao Yun walked very slowly, but in reality, it was not slow at all. In a short while, he caught up to the horse carriage that was slowly moving.    

    

He went around to the front of the horse carriage, then tilted his head to look at the two horses.    

    

The horses that were walking quietly saw Xiao Yun's smiling face from the corner of their eyes.    

    

Then... they stopped.    

    

There was no command.    

    

The horse's hooves slightly raised, then it quickly stomped a few steps. Then it regained its calm and lowered its head, as if it was looking for fresh grass on the bluestone ground.    

    

This scene caused the coachman and the young maid to be stunned.    

    

The coachman hurriedly wanted to wave the whip and direct the horse to continue forward, but was stopped by the young maid.    

    

The young maid walked forward, but did not speak first. Instead, she quietly waited for Xiao Yun's next move.    

    

Xiao Yun did not care about those two people, but continued to look at the two horses.    

    

He suddenly grinned and reached out his hand to touch the smooth and strong neck of the horse.    

    

The horse that was touched immediately swayed a few times. Even the horse's reins made the carriage gurgle.    

    

However, it did not lift the pestle and kick people, nor did it run away. After the panic, its big head leaned over and rubbed Xiao Yun's palm twice.    

    

It was as if a friend that had not seen him for many years had suddenly seen intimacy.    

    

Xiao Yun was stunned for a moment, then he raised his head and laughed.    

    

"This horse, is it for sale?"    

    

Suddenly, a sentence rang out in the quiet alley.    

    

The coachman's hand tightened, and the reins creaked as he twisted them.    

    

The corners of the maid's eyes twitched.    

    

She immediately put on a pitiful expression and jumped up. She rubbed her clothes with her hands and said, feeling wronged, "Our horses are not for sale."    

    

Xiao Yun turned his head to look at her and then looked at Shangguan Qing'er. That expression seemed to be saying... Look, what is called acting spoiled!    

    

The information expressed by the expression was extremely complicated.    

    

But Shangguan Qing'er, this straightforward person, understood!    

    

Her expression instantly became angry.    

    

Xiao Yun chuckled and looked at the young maid. He said, "Don't talk too much. There's nothing in this world that can't be sold. Don't worry, I will give you a very good price. En... A price that no one can refuse."    

    

The young maid pouted and said," Young Master, please don't make things difficult for this servant. This horse is a treasure that the young miss values. How can you sell it so easily? They were walking slowly now and had already delayed the time. If Miss blames them later, this servant is afraid that she will be punished again... "    

    

Her words were extremely pitiful and her heart was as hard as steel.    

    

However, Xiao Yun was clearly a diamond heart and was not moved at all. He only smiled as he looked at the two horses and said, "Not selling? That was a pity. These two horses clearly wanted to be bought by me. I'm afraid that even if you forcefully keep them, you won't be able to keep them."    

    

The young maid seemed to be on the verge of crying. She said with a trembling voice, "Young Master, are you... thinking of snatching them away?"    

    

Xiao Yun said with a smile, "It's broad daylight. I can't do something like robbing people on the street. But... if you don't believe me, you can try and see whether the horse will listen to you or me. "    

    

This sentence made the young maid and the coachman confused.    

    

This was simply nonsense!    

    

How could these two horses listen to this kid? Even if they took ten thousand steps back, they still had a horsewhip in their hands. If not, how could they not leave after being whipped in the butt?    

    

The driver looked at Xiao Yun as if he was looking at an idiot and immediately shouted out an order.    

    

The two horses immediately began to walk forward.    

    

But...    

    

Xiao Yun turned around and stood in front of the two horses. He stretched out his hand, flattened it, and then pressed it down gently.    

    

The two horses immediately stopped.    

    

The coachman was stunned for a moment. Then, he hurriedly waved the whip. This time, it was not just a sound, but a direct hit on the horses.    

    

The result...    

    

The two warhorses actually only struggled twice, and the eight horse hooves kept pacing back and forth. They wanted to move forward, but they did not move forward, as if they were very conflicted.    

    

In the end, they simply stood there and lowered their heads, looking for tender grass on the bluestone ground.    

    

"You!"    

    

The coachman suddenly stood up and shouted, but the horse remained unmoved.    

    

He whipped the horses for a while, but did not leave.    

    

He wanted to continue to whip them, but he still could not bear to hit them. He lifted the whip up high and slowly landed on the ground.    

    

The young maid was stunned by this scene. She hurriedly walked up and carefully pulled Xiao Yun's clothes. She asked pitifully, "How did young master do it? These two horses should never listen to other people."    

    

Xiao Yun did not answer. Instead, he reached out his hand and rubbed Xiao Yun's head twice.    

    

En, from this angle, this height should be what a maid should have! Small and exquisite, no matter what, it was better than Shangguan Qing'er, who was taller and bigger than a horse. If he wanted to touch her head, he would want to step on her toes!    

    

After rubbing twice, the little maid felt a little uncomfortable. She wanted to struggle out. It seemed like she used a lot of strength, but her strength was only slightly greater than a mosquito. She looked weak and boneless.    

    

Xiao Yun couldn't help but laugh.    

    

However, after laughing for a while, he suddenly sighed and let go of his hand. Then, he waved his hand at the two horses. The two horses seemed to have been unlocked by someone and took two steps forward.    

    

Xiao Yun said at this moment, "You were once in hell and climbed out of hell. Looking at this world, it is naturally heaven everywhere. But you don't have to be too tolerant. "    

    

These words came out of nowhere, and it was very abrupt.    

    

However, the young maid and the carriage driver immediately understood.    

    

They looked at Xiao Yun in shock, and their expressions were very complicated.    

    

Xiao Yun smiled again and said, Yes." This young master didn't investigate your secrets. It's just... intuition is like this. It's a guess. But it seems like this is true. "    

    

Actually, his original guess was that this carriage came from an unknown place, and they also carried that imposing manner. It was also reasonable to say that they were assassins.    

    

The appearance of a group of assassins in such a backalley inevitably attracted Xiao Yun's attention. After all, the Leng family... He didn't wish for anything to happen to the Leng family, and all his previous efforts would be in vain.
